About: I will treat any pet as if they were my own. Pets are a part of our family and I believe in treating them as such. I have cared for all ages of animals, from day old kittens to senior dogs and cats. Nothing is too much for me to do! My weekly routine typically only consists of being a student, and taking care of my pets. However, it is currently summer, and with school being out I have open availability! My home has a fenced in front and backyard area where my dogs would play. My cats have a screened in catio attached to the back area of my house! Both my dogs and cats are fed a mix of raw and kibble food.

About: I’ve been a dog owner for over 20 years. I’ve had a Britney spaniel and a cavalier King Charles spaniel. The Britney spaniel lived till she was 18 years old so I am very familiar with senior dog care and the special tasks that they require. I am currently an owner of two dogs a chocolate lab and a cava poo. The chocolate lab is seven years old and the cava poo just turned one years old. I am familiar and comfortable walking dogs of any size whether they are small and 10 pounds or 80 pounds plus. I am a teacher and I work from 8 AM to 4 PM Monday through Friday. I am primarily available to walk dogs after work so that would be between 4:30 PM and 10 PM. I am unavailable to walk dogs currently on Monday’s and Wednesdays because I am in grad school I have class after work. I am available on the weekends all day, I have no work commitments. For my own two dogs, they get walked three times a day and fed twice a day. They have yearly vet visits, depending on what vaccines or check ups that are needed. They go to the groomer based on need, the Cava Poo goes every six weeks and the chocolate lab goes every couple months. I’ve taken care of dogs in my neighborhood and have followed their walking and care instructions to the greatest detail possible.

Alexis was amazing with our new puppy who is still learning how to walk, not jump, etc. She was always patient and willing to be flexible if our pup wouldn’t walk, playing with him in the yard instead. She is reliable and on time. We highly recommend Alexis!

About: My family and I all love animals, so we applied to be pet's sitters at home care. We have a independent house with a yard, and there will always be someone at home 24 hours a day. The pets can move freely at home without too many restrictions. We have regularly clean to the house to ensure the clean and hygiene environment for all pets. I have over a year of experience in taking care of cats and over six years of experience in taking care of dogs. The longest time I took care of a cat was for two months. At the beginning, the cat would hide under the sofa for a week, but lately he became completely unrestrained and would lie on the bed together, play hide-and-seek with me, and explore every corner of the house. When the weather was good, the dogs could play freely in the yard. Welcome all cats and dogsto my home, we are the best friends of your pets! We can keep daily routine for all pet's. I am working part-time on weekends and I will come back at 4PM , but my family members are off on weekends. And my family members and I take care of all pets together. We have a independent house with a yard, and there will always be someone at home 24 hours a day. The pets can move freely at home without too many restrictions. We have regularly cleaning to the house to ensure the clean and hygiene environment for all pets. When the weather was good, the dogs could play freely in the yard.

About: Hi, I'm Bridget! Dogs have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up with a Soft-Coated Wheaten Terrier and have spent years caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. In December 2019, I adopted my senior rescue dog, Abbott, a Chihuahua mix who quickly became my best friend and constant companion. She passed away in March 2026, and caring for her through her senior years taught me so much about patience, compassion, and attentive pet care. I currently have a 2-year-old rescue pup named Clover, who is incredibly sweet and keeps me smiling every day. I'm a licensed therapist by profession, which means I bring patience, reliability, strong communication skills, and a calm presence to every interaction—both with pets and their humans. My husband and I recently moved to Long Island for his medical residency, but I'm not new to Rover. I've been dog walking and pet sitting through Rover for years while living in Washington, DC and Philadelphia, and I've loved building relationships with pets and their families along the way. I'm an active person and enjoy walking, running, and spending time outdoors. Whether your dog prefers a leisurely stroll, a brisk walk, or a jogging companion to burn off extra energy, I'm happy to tailor our time together to their needs. When caring for your pet, I treat them like one of my own. I know how much trust it takes to leave your furry family member in someone else's hands, and I take that responsibility seriously. You can expect dependable care, regular updates, and plenty of photos so you can relax knowing your pet is safe, happy, and loved. I can't wait to meet you and your pup! I recently relocated to Long Island and currently have a very flexible schedule, allowing me to accommodate walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting throughout the day. Once I return to my full-time therapy practice, I will continue to offer flexible scheduling, including mornings, evenings, weekends, and many daytime appointments. Feel free to reach out—even if your request falls outside my listed availability, I may still be able to accommodate it! Your pet's safety and comfort are always my top priorities. As both a dog owner and experienced Rover sitter, I understand how important it is to know your pet is in caring and capable hands. I take the time to learn each pet's routine, personality, triggers, and preferences so I can provide care that feels familiar and stress-free. During walks and visits, I remain attentive to my surroundings, follow all owner instructions carefully, and prioritize safe handling practices at all times.
